Answer:
14.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given data:
Speed of the stream, v₁ = 7.1 m/s
let the cross section area at initial point be A₁
now area at the second point, A₂ = (1/2)A₁ = 0.5A₁
now, from the continuity equation, we have
A₁v₁ = A₂v₂
where, v₂ is the velocity at the narrowed portion
thus, on substituting the values, we get
A₁ × 7.1 = 0.5A₁ × v₂
or
v₂ = 14.2 m/s
Its total mechanical energy is <em>2,000 J</em>.
We don't have enough information to say anything about its heat energy, its chemical energy, or the energy due to any electrical charge it may be carrying or any magnetic field it may have.
Since U=0,
h=1/2gt^2 (h= ut+1/2gt^2, U=0)
h=1/2*10*4*4
h=80m
